How does my wheel alignment look?

I am not worth a crap with the metric stuff but it appears to be much better from what I can see. The rear toe was jacked up big time. That is why you were having handling issues under power.

That very well could be. I have yet to test it under power after the alignment.

Before this alignment, I had another one done from another place about 2 months ago, so I actually thought it had nothing todo with the alignment if this does cure the issues I was having before.

The toe eccentric bolts may have slipped. That is why I am using SPL midlinks. I lock the stock eccentric bolts out. They won't slip.

I have the Eibach rear camber kit. Is there anything I can do to stop the slipping?

The camber arm and midlink (Spring Bucket) adjust toe. Keep an eye on it and if it happens again you will need to consider other options.

If it happens again, exactly what do I need to change to in order to prevent it from happening further?

If you have the Eibach kit with the adjuster in the middle, then you need the adjustment lockout kit from SPL BUT you will need to make sure that the adjuster has sufficient range to give you the camber you want.

I've never understood why Eibach gives you eccentric adjusters
